The newest Blazer

Former Indiana guard Armon Bassett has committed to UAB. Bassett, who was recruited to Indiana by Mike Davis, made the commitment to Davis on Monday night.

"It just I think it's the right basketball situation for me," said Bassett, a 6-foot-1, 176-pound Terre Haute, Indiana native. "I talked to a lot of schools and took my time with this decision. What it came down to was I trusted Coach Davis."

Bassett said he talked seriously with around 10 different programs and his finalists, in addition to UAB, were West Virginia, Arkansas, Cincinnati and Texas A&M. He averaged 11.4 points as a sophomore and led Big 10 in 3-point FG percentage at 45.4 percent. He was 69-of-152 on 3-pointers.
